My improvement is intended to overcome all these diiiiculties and will now be explnined in detail7 reference being made to the accompanyingdrawing in which is illustrated an embodiment thereor".

Fig. i5 is e front elevation of the holder shown in detail. Fig. Il is o side or edge view ot the same.

The same reference characters indicate the same parts inail the views.

Let the numeral 5 designate the bracket which, as illustrated in the drawing, hes two arms G separated by a spiace 7, the arms diverging as they extend downwardly from their upper extremities Where they merge. At. the opposite lower corners of' the bracket are located tivo rigid clips 8 which are hoolisheped to receive the edge of the rim 9 of the gage l0. Upon the upper extremity or' the bmcli'etis formed L tubular lng or pocket l which extends above the body of the bracket and is adopted to receive the plun- 0er member 13 ot' an angle-clip le. The pper member this plunger member err enges spiral spring l5 located in the recess or cavity of the lug. rEhe lower Vlrcmity 1G of the plunger normally extends iv the lower extremity oll the front port ,l lug' und has n lfshztped recess i7 'i to receive the upper porti n of the i the gege when the letter is in place.
